Colour Me Friendly

>> So the painting that's hanging in front of me is starting to move and the doorway is moving along with it.  I'm barely awake and I'm thinking this is just an illusion.  This is me minus quite a few hours of sleep.  What to do…?  Slap on some colour and hope for the best.  My combination of orange and coral was weirdly repeated on the day I saw the Cacharel show.  Err… I'm developing quite a pattern of these sort of fashion show coincidences…

You know the score by now.  It's filler as the week gets killer.  I don't really use killer as an adjective but I'm after a good old rhyme.  I get accustomed to some new items such as… 

…these Suno x Loeffler Randall S/S 11 shoes that winged their way over post show.  I'm a lucky soul and I almost felt hot-cheeked just looking at the box.  Wearing things that precisely correspond to the season that you're checking out at fashion week is weirdly exhilarating which concludes that I am in fact a shallow ditz…

…then there's this Yokoo necklace which is like an enlarged heart candy elastic necklace except the hearts have enlarged into balls and I'd lose my teeth if I tried to bite into this…

  1. very very impractical.
    i think your fashion taste and ideas are wonderful but theyre very much ideas and dreams. if i were wearing that to work, uni or even meeting frends id get freakish stares!
    and OMG your platforms look very impractical

  2. Gorgeous use of colour as usual S. Especially loving you in the pink trousers and blue coat, very Michael van der Ham colouring, loving it! X

  3. Those Suno x Loeffler shoes are also a work of art, they’re amazing!
    Also really love those magenta Alex and Eli trews, the colour palette of that outfit is definitely a firm favourite!

  4. Aww <3 you look adorable in both! But i specially like the first! Orange and coral are divine!

  5. @Josie, Susie is not known for her practicality.
    Susie, I think your ideas are genius, and you never seem to tire or run out of inspiration. <3

  6. Your outfit post from last week reminded me: did Louise Goldin show this season?

  7. Ooh what a colorful garments – always dare to layer them up in different colors. This is one of the reason why I love staring at your pictures.

  8. you have such a knack…for…layering..don’t you…its absolutely amazing how you are able to carry off the first outfit….those shoes are fantabulous…..
    that candy necklace is alright…but those colours..are the work of lovely fireworks…it just looks..smashing…hot…all together….(colours..colours…k..noted)
    i sooo want that vintage rodier jacket…is it possible i could get one…from somewhere…:)

  9. your first outfit is crazy wonderful!! so in love with those shoes, you are one very lucky girl 🙂 fabulous colour combinations as per!! <3 xxx

  10. So thrilled to see your Yokoo necklace! I bought a pom pom necklace from her that I am so eager to wear. It’s more of a fall/winter piece, so I’ve been sitting on it for many long agonizing months. Almost there!

  11. I for one, could not fathom wearing SS11 shoes when it’s still 2010. Unless of course there was an overly generous (albeit silly) old dame donating them to my local charity store out-of-this-world prematurely.
    WELL done on this accolade. May there be many, many more.

  12. Have eyed those Suno X Loeffler Randall wedges longingly since you first posted about them a few weeks back. Can’t believe you’re running around in them already! Your colour combi is very artsy- just what you need to perk yourself up yes. Plus some rest will be good. take care!
